Manual 31 Guidelines for calibrating a binder distributor ... - Aapaq.org

• ‘Bucket Test’ record (Appendix C): This record will record all
‘Bucket’ tests done on the distributor within the last year,
whether on site or at a testing facility. The object of this record
is to show continuous good performance on transverse
distribution tests so that in future the parties concerned may,
based on the evidence of the ‘Bucket Test’ record, decide not
to repeat the ‘Bucket Test’, especially in cases where products
with low viscosities or low volumes of binder are sprayed.
• Performance log (Appendix D): This is a log showing the
distributor’s performance in terms of rate of application and
the variance thereof on recent projects. The log will not
contain sensitive information such as volumes sprayed and
the client names, but only date of spray, an indication of
satisfaction of the client, the person who approved the spray
and a contact number for this person.
• It is recommended that site staff should keep separate records
indicating the checks made before and after spraying
(Appendices E and F).
